Harris is 59 and was born October 20, 1964 — putting her just weeks outside the Gen X range which is generally thought to span 1965 to the early 1980s. His successor has not been confirmed, but one name being floated is his Gen X lieutenant Stephanie Pope. Could the House of Mouse soon have its first Gen X leader? The picture is not completely clear on how Gen X bosses differ from their predecessors on issues such as remote work and the role of AI in the workplace.

In today's big story, we're looking at another Tesla earnings report that was light on details about big future plans . The approach worked well last quarter when Tesla's earnings report was even worse than expected . However, big-picture plans without concrete details fell flat for investors this time around. It's Tesla's silver lining amid the EV market slowdown. But as beneficial as competitors were to Tesla this quarter, others seem to be gearing up for battle.

These are some of the startups AI and entertainment leaders have their eyes on.

Meta on Tuesday announced the latest version of its Llama artificial intelligence model. Nvidia is a key Meta partner and provides the social networking giant with the computing chips called GPUs to help train its AI models, including the latest version of Llama. For example, Meta said that Llama model announced on Tuesday was trained on 16,000 of Nvidia's H100 graphics processors. But open-source models can cost hundreds of millions or billions of dollars to create. There aren't many companies that are financially able to develop and release open-source models with similar amounts of investment.

"To me, no task is beneath me because, remember, I used to be a dishwasher [and] I used to clean toilets," Huang said in a March interview at the Stanford Graduate School of Business. Whenever possible, the longtime CEO likes to show his employees his reasoning for a suggestion or solution he offers.
